That first hit, liner into left, really got me fired up. Then droobs with the routine double play that turned into nothing? Fugly. Pestano threw what 11 pitches? Why couldn't he stay in and finish? All in all, it was a nice win.

Because Pestano does his job abd then Perez does his.

That's the way it is, the way it has been in baseball for 30 years and the way it will be.

You guys know this. I'm not sure why it puzzles you when it happens 90 times each year.

I think when Bautista popped up in the 9th, Santana asked him what another guy was doing with his wife's panties on his head, a la Jake Taylor and the A's player. No word if Perez said his arm felt like jello.

It puzzles Jonah Keri, who got pissy on Twitter when I mentioned it didn't even take him 24 hours to compare Perez's meltdown to LeBron and the Browns leaving town:

I like Jonah Keri. Behind Posnanski, I think he's the best baseball writer in the biz.

Rage touched 94. That's a good sign. Had a dancing slider too. His command was slightly erratic, but he's just an emotional guy. Overthrows the ball a lot.

Got the win, all that matters.

Can't believe the Red Sox blew two separate saves today. They're going to have a really long year and Bobby V isn't the kind of manager to navigate them through rough waters.

Chilly night on tap tomorrow. Should definitely help Tomlin. Sale for the ChiSox means we might see Marson with Santana DHing. Good chance to get Jason Donald a start at 3B/LF/2B. Need a game where we can throw Wheeler or Asencio without it mattering, preferably an offensive explosion.

Did anyone else who attended a game this weekend notice how much they've jacked up concession prices? Slices of pizza and hot dogs that I'm pretty sure were $3.50 and $4 last year were in the $5.75-$6 range. Also, beer vendors now just give you a can with no cup, NASCAR style. I think 40s are next.

Still ridiculous in the grand scheme of hot dogs, but not out of the ordinary.

From where? We were certain we must not be getting the "regular" ones, but they were $6.25 at every stand we went to.

Our seats were in Sec 428 or so at just one of the regular concession stands. SEC 533 I believe. Not a free standing deal but actually built into the concourse. There was a Strickland's ice cream line at the one I went too as well. Went to counter and told him just a hot dog and it was $4.25

Now, I didn't see hot dogs on the menu without it being part of a combo of some sort so maybe you specifically have to ask for it alone.
